System Update Info / Bugs / Etc.

Okay, here's the deal: The previous styles are once again up and running, I think. I need to do some tweaks on both the light/dark versions bc I had to essentially rebuild them from the ground up 😓 from the old data... and its not all there still.

You can select them from the style picker, way way down below in the lower left. look for "GBF XIV" either the light or dark versions. I will at some point real soon switch this back to the default, but not until I get all the bugs worked out. There are other weird things happening, images/avatars mysteriously not displaying, etc. but I don't think there's any real show-stoppers.

I'll be working on it.

I don't know enough to know if there are any bugs or not. All I know is the site looks different. I'm old and don't really like change however, I do like the new look.
Thank you for all you do managing this site, GP403. I'm sure it is quite a bit of work and is greatly appreciated. Because of you, and those who help with this site, you have made an outstanding place for all of us to connect, BS, enjoy friendship and be a Gbody family!

I liked the old layout.
Or at least try and make a "lighter" option again.

Like I said, its already there again, I just need to test a few things fully and re-do some customizations I'd made before switching it back to the default.

If you scroll aaaaallll the way down to the bottom of the page, you'll see "Default Style" hit that and you can (I think) choose between the "GBF XIV" either the Dark or Light variant.

Huh, yeah this weird and ultimately site breaking "no scroll" thing is happening to me, too. Not cool and I'm making this one a priority.

It’s spotty though. It started doing it on my phone. I changed apps, came back and scrolling works again.

On my Mac it’s essentially completely disabling the scroll wheel. I can’t even scroll the text box I’m typing in.

Well I figured out that on my iPhone at least, you can pinch zoom the page and then you’re able to scroll around again.

So there’s that.

and it looks like the scrollbars are back. 🤦‍♂️ idk.

I'm going to push the "GBF XIV" back out as the defaults probably tomorrow. Looks like maybe the bugs are working themselves out via caching weirdness that I can't control.

New TODO List:

• The controls on the "stats" panel on the home page don't work.
• strange intermittent failures (like the scroll bars), I'm watching and listening.
• ???

If you see something you think is messed up, feel free to reply to this thread. You might be seeing something I'm not, and it could be affecting other people as well.
